<p>
This is the 8960 Series 10 Wireless Communications Test Set used to
simulate a GSM/EDGE cell site.
</p>

<p>
This is a versatile instrument that can be used to test many areas of a
mobile product. It can simulate a base station (cell site), perform radio
measurements, and route IP from GPRS to the outside world. 
</p>

<p>
The device is a general purpose platform, and various software packages
may be run on it. We run the <a href="http://www.home.agilent.com/agilent/product.jspx?cc=US&lc=eng&pageMode=OV&pid=742435&ct=PRODUCT&id=742435">GSM/GPRS Lab Application E6701 rev. E</a>.
This provides full cell functionality including GPRS/EGPRS PDP contexts to
enable wireless data connectivity testing.
</p>

<p>The device also contains several sub-instruments that may be used
independly (via exteranal connectors), or internally.</p>

<ul>
  <li>Data throughput monitor
  </li>
  <li>Audio generator
  </li>
  <li>Audio analyzer (level, distortion, frequency, SINAD)
  </li>
  <li>Multi-tone audio generator (up to 20 simultaneous audio tones)
  </li>
  <li>Multi-tone audio analyzer
  </li>
  <li>RF Signal analyzer and spectrum monitor
  </li>
</ul>

<p>The Power Droid software provides Python API's to the instruments. It's
possible to control voice and data circuit activation, radio power levels,
GSM channel assignments, audio sources, call monitoring, and more.</p>

<p>
The Power Droid framework also defines radio "profiles", that allow you to
easily set air interface (GSM, EDGE), and simulate different cell tower
distances (near, far, city, country, etc.)
